Oct 16, 2013 at 19:34 comment added sergtk "The GUID is created once and never updated after that" - this is exactly what I have tested right now by changing slug of publication. GUID is preserved.
Oct 16, 2013 at 19:28 comment added s_ha_dum The GUID and the slug are different. The GUID is created once and never updated after that. The GUID is not an URL, however much it may look like one. It sounds to me like the importer should have preserved the GUID used by Blogger (Blogger has to have something of the sort).

Oct 16, 2013 at 19:25 comment added sergtk I have just rechecked. It seems when I update slug/permalink, guid is preserved (old permalink stored in it) - it is fine. It is not clear for me why other posts are moved on top of RSS, possibly something buggy or I do something in wrong way. Anyway I will pay attention to this in future more accurately accounting your clarification. Thanks!

Oct 16, 2013 at 18:55 comment added sergtk I have not changed guid via Wordpress UI - I event have not found how to do this. I also have not performed changes in mysql tables. I just changed slug for post. But it appear that slug is used as a part of guid by WP. It seems that I need to change slug but preserve guid as is at the same time - this is to avoid polluting RSS feed with old posts. But I don't know how to achieve this. Feed is constructed by WP - I have not performed some special modifications.
